I haven't seen that prog Mollie, and I forgot to watch that Railway one as well, so I guess I'll try to catch up with them....if I remember?
We had a lot of rain overnight, and a lot more snow has gone. I can see the edges of my lawn now, and the fields are begining to emerge from the snow.
The problem now is flooding. With all the snow now melting from the hills, the river has burst it's banks and completely flooded the road to the village.
I can get out the other way, but with a lot more snow to melt, it might stay flooded for a few days?
I found some sharp sand, so I sprinkled it over the drive outside my house, and the path to the front door. The drive that goes past my 2 neighbours is still iced up though. The post girl just about fell flat on her back trying to deliver my mail, walking past my neighbours.
Hope your car gets through it's MoT Hicky.
I haven't tried moving my van since before Christmas. I had the engine started a few days ago, just to make sure the battery didn't go flat.
I could probably get it out now with just a little digging. There's a little snow piled up behind it.
